Reviews for Central Europe: Enemies, Neighbors, Friends
It is a strength of Johnson's always compelling narrative that he manages to separate clearly the horrific aberrations of the twentieth century from the real history that was misused by ideologues to produce them ... Insightful and superbly written book.
